Tightening stomach with Zumba? Would love to hear feedback on mother's who had over Five children and do zumba.

I'm not a mom and I know you wanted to know if mother's have gotten toned from doing Zumba but I just wanted to say I've done both the Zumba and Zumba Exhilarate for three weeks in a row for 5 days each and haven't lost or gained anything. I know in both you work with the toning sticks. I just have regular 3lb weights which gets harder the longer you use them for these two videos. The Zumba 'Sculpt & Tone' will have you heaving if you're not in top shape. The Zumba Ripped is extremely low impact so I don't see why they call it 'ripped' when you barely break a sweat. I'm not in tip top shape but I know the Ripped DVD is too easy to do and don't see how you can get 'ripped' from it.

Yes! I have three kids and wished I had found this years ago. Watch the video on it too! You can put baby on their belly or back. I thought it was safe and much better than the plastic ones I already used before

Yes, they do. And it is better. You get to work out at your own pace and learn the moves at your pace. You will start sweating after 15 minutes into the workout and it is sooo much fun. Just try it. You won't regret it. I was paying $49 a month at a Zumba studio and I didn't go often. This to me saved me a lot of money and custom fitted my schedule. I hope this helps....

Until you feel like you've mastered it or are bored with it. Boredom will kill your drive to work out and zumba is totally worth keeping up with! You will see results, promise! Ripped will def tone you and slim you down, I love that DVD. Exhilarate is kinda hard (when I started it, I was like "wth?") & will work your tush off but its fun. I can't do RUSH because I just don't like the teaching style of the girl who leads it. MIX is hard hard hard imo. There are some funky dances in it that i've never seen before. The concert is fun but essentially just Exhilarate live with a few differences/entertainment. If I were you, i'd try Ripped next (it has 2 parts) and see how far you get then add a little more each workout. I'd also intersperse Exhilarate in and do as much as you can until you can do it all. I either stopped when I thought I was going to die at first or would take 2-3 min rests when I needed to. Hope that helps!!

I was not sent the Zumba Gold. I was sent the Zumba Exhilaration. I am trying my best to keep up with it. But what I wanted was the Zumba Gold! I would love to be able to complain it was too slow paced!

YES!! I have! After finding out that my uterus was displaced and was massaged back into place (maya abdominal massage) I conceived, naturally, the same week I had the massage and started drinking the tea. I am currently 7 months pregnant.

I have been using it for some time. At first I was worried about my back....took it slow and easy making sure to pull my stomach in and not stretch out as far to begin with. After a little over a week I was able to stretch the full stretch out and pull back slowly without pulling on my back. Now I realize it has actually strengthen my back and don't worry about it. Feels great. Good luck and enjoy.

Rogges, so did you find this worked for your little one and his/her reflux? I'm debating on whether to get it or not. My 7 wk old is having it pretty bad. Thanks in advance!

Thank you for contacting Active Forever. Unfortunately we cannot make recommendations on this product. You would have to contact a doctor to see what tension would be needed for your son.

I am just now 200 pounds and only exercise until Shaun has been walking. I have found all the tapes to be do-able but would consent with your Dr. as of when you could start an exercise routine.

I truly don't have this answer and I have absolutely to involvement with this company, but because I am now in my 4th month of using this product and have lost 14lbs in the first 3 months without changing my eating habits, I decided yesterday to post this on my fb for all my families and friends. This is something I never do and my adult kids are so happy to see mom looking and feeling good again. No tension or feeling jittery side affects.

Slowly, I have firmed up and my waist is slimming. I am wheelchair bound with mid section paralysis. It is slow but it seems to be working. You will need patience, exercise, and appropriate diet. Belly Buster gives me energy, lessens my desire to eat, and does not upset my system.

Yes there is the Zumba has a beginner program to use before moving on to the harder workout.

I bought Zumba Gold because regular Zumba was too fast paced for me. I agree that it may be a bit slow paced, but you can learn the steps easier that way. I fell like you can get out of this what you are willing to put into it-- I think it was the only way I would have been able to learn the steps.

Yes, I have lost over 40lbs in 5 months doing the elliptical for about 50 minutes in the morning and doing a full hour of Zumba in the evening anywhere between 4-7 days a week. I was more consistentl with Zumba precisely because it was so much fun while getting a great calorie burn. Don't be too concerned about staying on beat, my motto was as long as I was moving I was burning and I lost going from a size 14-16 to down to a size 6-8 in only 5 months!

I didnt exercise or diet, if 5 lbs is enough for you maybe its worth a try but i didnt take on a regular basis. I often forgot to take it some days. I never reordered cause i only wanted to try it. But i dieted and lost more weight in 4months, it really takes a while to change bad habits.
